Read the first 7 Sharing the Road flashcards as text

  1. When passing a cyclist on a road with a speed limit over 50 km/h, what is the minimum distance you must leave between your vehicle and the cyclist?

    Answer: 1 metre

    BC law requires drivers to leave at least 1 metre of space when passing cyclists on roads with speed limits over 50 km/h.

  2. When approaching a marked crosswalk where a pedestrian is waiting to cross, what must you do?

    Answer: Yield and stop to allow the pedestrian to cross

    BC law requires drivers to yield and stop for pedestrians at marked crosswalks, regardless of which lane the pedestrian is in.

  3. A school bus ahead of you has its red lights flashing and the stop arm extended. What must you do?

    Answer: Stop and wait until the red lights stop flashing and the arm retracts

    When a school bus activates red flashing lights and extends its stop arm, all vehicles must stop completely and wait until the lights stop flashing and the arm is retracted.

  4. Why should you increase your following distance when driving behind a large truck?

    Answer: Large trucks have larger blind spots and require longer stopping distances

    Large trucks have significant blind spots and require considerably more stopping distance than passenger vehicles, making extra following distance essential.

  5. When sharing the road with motorcycles, where should you be especially careful to check before changing lanes?

    Answer: In your blind spots

    Motorcycles are smaller and can easily disappear in a vehicle's blind spots; always perform a blind spot check before changing lanes.

  6. A pedestrian using a white cane is standing at the curb and about to cross the street. What should you do?

    Answer: Yield and wait for the pedestrian to cross safely

    Pedestrians using a white cane are visually impaired; drivers must yield and give them sufficient time and space to cross safely.

  7. What do amber (yellow) flashing lights on a school bus indicate?

    Answer: Prepare to stop — the bus is about to stop and activate red lights

    Amber flashing lights warn drivers that the school bus is preparing to stop and will soon activate red lights; slow down and be ready to stop.
